Reasons for high agility in a CAS


The analysis of CAS characteristics helps in understanding the key reasons why a CAS has high agility. These are as follows:

  • Agents, that is, employees in the context of an enterprise, are empowered to deal with the environment and interact with other agents, in a manner which they deem as best for the situation at hand

  • Agents learn based on feedback and change themselves and adjust their behaviors accordingly

  • Agents are actively and purposefully engaged with the system

  • Agents and the system discard what is not working, and constantly evolve to find the best fit with the environment

  • CAS purpose, structure, and processes are dynamic and evolve based on emergent information
